I am in charge of selling my company’s fixed income alternative investment. It is quite a good product, and has returned over 9% over the last 5 years with low risk. I am trying to find RIAs and other consultants who will take a pitch from me, to direct their clients/foundations, etc. Any ideas how to break through to this market?

I need some input…
What is the best type of investment? ex. stock, bond, etc…
What should I invest in?
I should’ve made it more exact.
I was thinking about investing $5 a week on something in a bond or GIC, or anything, and I am only 15, so i would have many years to invest and make my money work for me.

I just turned 18 and I have about $12,000 saved up. I am about to go to college and I decided that I want to put all of it into investments, so that when I get out of college it will go up some. Otherwise it will just sit in my bank account. What should I invest in that is safe and something that I don’t have to worry about my stocks going bad/down??

Can I even invest at 18 or do I need a parent?

tc61380 asked:


For example, if I used a cash advance to
1. buy stocks,
2. invest in bonds/fixed income assets
3. “refi” my personal mortgage
4. buy investment property

or any other situations where credit card interest is tax deductible?
Thanks for all you responses. Just to clarify -

Say I borrow $100 from my credit card at 10%.
I owe $110 at the end of the year.

I put this same $100 into a stock (or some other investment). It goes to $120 and I sell, gaining $20.

1. Do I have to pay taxes on $20, or $10 ($20 gain minus $10 interest)?

2. If I didn’t sell, can I deduct the $10 interest against my other income?
